They still need a little more time to get rid of some winter color. I got some nice light tonight and here are the results. Both are almost full frame (10 percent crop) shot with 120-300 sigma w/2x-tc at 600mm. Hope you enjoy and thanks for looking and commenting.

These are fantastic shots Chris! If I had to choose, I'd go with #2 as the tops due to the lighter BG. You can see the quality in these near full-frame shots.
